CONWAY — The Conway School Board plans to put a $1.3 million bond article on the school district warrant to pay for replacing the windows at Kennett High School. Should voters give their approval, the work would take two years to complete.
Board members Bill Aughton, Courtney Burke, Dr. Michelle Capozzoli, Randy Davison and Joe Lentini voted to go the bond route during Monday night’s Zoom meeting, while Joe Mosca and Jess Whitelaw abstained.
